    Clovis' Nikon Nuggets

    The Pup and I made it to the Birds of Prey center. Unfortunately, there was a bad wreck on the interstate and we missed the morning demonstration. We did make it in time to catch the owl flight demo, and the hand showing of two of the other raptors.

    Anyone making slideshows?

    Woohoo! My first Swamp wildlife photography SS has garnered over 100 views now. The Youtube checks will soon be rolling in! :rolleyes:

    Anyone having trouble with checkerboard artifacts in the backgrounds with Topaz AI?

    Just for info, I finally heard back from Topaz. He said there was a new version coming out the end of the month. I assume that is the beta that Fred referred to. He said to wait until that comes out and see if the issue continues.

    d3300 with ES-2

    My understanding is that the ES-2 is designed to be used with one of several Nikon macro lenses with a 62mm filter. You might be able to make it work with a lens you have using extension tubes and the proper filter adapter, but I wouldn't count on it. Here is a description and review of the...

    Dock Dogs!

    I'm ambivalent about this one. One the one hand, I really like it, despite the fact that I missed framing it the way I would choose, if I had had the time. Somehow it seems to miss the mark. This may have been the best of the bunch. I really like the repeating images of the banner...

    Post your Photographing the photographer.

    Didn't realize I had a photographer in this one until I brought up the shadows.

    Dock Dogs!

    Well, this is a sport, just not a human sport. The Pup and I went to the SouthEast Wildlife Expo today. The main reason was to take pictures of the Dock Dogs in action. We were a little disappointed that they didn't have a practice pool, like they did last time. There were few people watching...

    C130 Transports were back today.

    The Air National Guard units typically have pristine aircraft. They have the money, manpower and experience to keep their airframes in meticulous condition. At least that's how it was back in the 80s and 90s. We had a lot of ANG aircraft transferred to us during the first gulf war. When they...

    Using a SB-600 remotely with a Z5

    The cheapest way is with a cord, but that assumes you aren't going to locate it very far away from the camera, and don't mind a cord running from the camera to the flash. There are some non TTL triggers (like the Vello Freewave Fusion basic for Nikon) that should work with your camera and flash...

    I have GOT to get a bigger camera

    Don't be confused by being able to read the EXIF data in the post, and the EXIF data not being included in the image file. When I export an image using Lightroom, there is an option for including all metadata or including copyright data only(which strips out the metadata). I have had to remove...

    I have GOT to get a bigger camera

    I flew as a loadmaster on C-141 aircraft for almost 2 decades. The C-130s were considered our "little" brothers, and the C-5s as our big brothers. I never got a chance to fly on a C-130, but I deheaded on a C-5 once. That's one big aircraft. If this shot were of a C-5 you would definitely need a...

    Anyone having trouble with checkerboard artifacts in the backgrounds with Topaz AI?

    Thanks, I'll upgrade to the new version and see if that takes care of the issue.

    Anyone having trouble with checkerboard artifacts in the backgrounds with Topaz AI?

    A new version of which? Photo AI or Sharpen and Denoise?

    Anyone having trouble with checkerboard artifacts in the backgrounds with Topaz AI?

    No problem. I'm known for being cheap about some things, but since I got back into photography, I decided to spend at least a little more than usual to upgrade my computer so that it would run editing software, at least a little faster than the older model I was working with. I couldn't see...
